Government assesses all significant new employment regulation on all types of businesses, including micro businesses, through undertaking impact assessments. The Government commissioned Matthew Taylor to conduct an independent review into modern working practices. The review was published in July 2017 and highlighted the strengths of the UK\u2019s flexible labour market relative to other countries. However, the review also proposed new measures the Government should take to improve outcomes for all those participating in the labour market.

The changes to regulations affecting business during the 2010-15 Parliament are recorded in Statements of New Regulation that were published every six months. These are available on https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/one-in-two-out-statement-of-new-regulation<\/a>. For the 2015-17 Parliament, the Government will shortly publish its final report on the savings to business delivered during that Parliament. This will be published on www.gov.uk<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p> As we leave the EU, the Government is committed to maximising certainty for individuals and businesses, making the UK the best place in the world to do business. This will mean fostering a high quality, stable and predictable regulatory environment, whilst also actively taking opportunities to support innovative business models. It is not possible to give a definitive figure on which regulations will be withdrawn or amended in (i) 2018 and (ii) years beyond 2018. This is because the volume of legislation will depend on policy decisions to be taken.<\/p>"}
